wasted life--who goes to the grave
without everhaving had one luxury
has been the food OF others. He

bare and lonely room, cherries and

SagacioHs Advertising.

We repnblish below portion OF
An interview which recently appear
ed III The Milwaukee Wisconsin, in
which A. W. Rich, one OF the most
successful merchants OF that metro
polls, gave some very practical and
valuable suggestions on the impOr
tant subject Of advertising. Speak
ing OF the Lest way to succeed in
hard times and und r close compe-
rition, he said:
1T will not do to substitute econo-
my for parismony. Some attempts
at reducing business expenses which
| / have witnessed have been as dis
astrous AS that Of the man who
taught his horse to live on straw a
day. Just when he had succeeded
the animal died.
The three main items OF business
expenses are wages, advertising and
rent. Reducing the wages OF en-
ployers, reducing the outlay Of gen.
eral advertising, and removing into
smaller quarters may suggest them
selves to some minds as feasible
methods OF econmiZing. But the
wideawake merchant will at once
recognize these expedients, taken
all together or sing!y, as involving
certain commercial suicide. By re-
ducing the wages Of employees, you
reduce their interest In the business,
reduce their energies in its behalf.
and consequently reduce the amount
of sales and profits. BY shrinking or
disseminating your advertisements,
you put your light under bushel.
Your customers will forget where
and what you keep, and will patron
ize houses which are constantly re-
porting in the columns OF newspa-
pers, in n conspicuous manner, new
receipts, new styles and new attrac-
tons. To remove into smaller
quarters is a sign of weakness;

your creditors will soon plainly

WASHINGTON LETTER.


If the Democratic party is respon-

government of the District of Co
lumbia and the city of Washington
b 9th being almost under the direct
control of Mr.. Cleveland himself
yet, this is the only place in the
United States where the people have
boldly met in public, denounced
these rulers as corrupt and inefficient
aud demanded their resignation or
removal at the hands of the Presi
dent, as the penalty for their mis-
government. The City and District
are governed by three Commission
ers, who were appointed 10y Presi-
dent Cleveland; and ever since their
advent to power, affairs have gone
from bad to worse; one of the Com
missioners has bought $500 horse
and other personal property at pub

greatest dissatisfaction is the al
vance in wafer rates and the dis

IN BRIEF, AND 10 THE POINT.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery Indigestion is a foe
to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one Of the most complicated and
wonderful things in existence. 1t
is easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food, bad cookery, mental worry,
late hours, irregular habits, and
many other things which ought not
to be, have made the American peo-
pie nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has
done a wonderful work in reform
ing this sad business and making
tine American so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals and be happy.
Remember:-No happiness with.
out health. But Green's August
Flower brings health and happiness
to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist
for bottle. Seyenty-tive cents.
